IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS (Continued)
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
Read and understand the entire manual before using the Brio.
DO NOT USE THE UNIT FOR OTHER THAN INTENDED USE.
Note: Put the Brio on a surface that is horizontal, even, and stable.
This appliance is intended for normal household use. It is not intended to be
used in environments such as a kitchen staff of shops, offices, farms, or other
work environments. Nor is it intended to be used by clients in hotels, motels,
bed and breakfasts, and non-residential environments.
NOTICE: THE FAILURE TO FOLLOW ANY OF THE IMPORTANT
SAFEGUARDS, ADDITIONAL SAFEGUARDS, OR THE INSTRUCTIONS
FOR SAFE USE IS A MISUSE OF YOUR BRIO THAT CAN VOID YOUR
WARRANTY AND CREATE THE RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY.
Electrical Information
A short power-supply cord (or detachable power-supply cord) is
provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or
tripping over a longer cord. Longer detachable power-supply cords
or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised
in their use. If a longer detachable power-supply cord or extension
cord is used:
1. The marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as
great as the electrical rating of the appliance.
2. The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the
countertop or tabletop where it could be pulled on or tripped over
unintetionally. The Brio should be operated on a separate electrical
outlet from other operating appliances due to wattage limitations. The
appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other).
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to t into a
polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not t fully into the outlet,
reverse the plug. If it still does not t, contact a qualied electrician. Do
not attempt to modify the plug in any way.
3. If the appliance is of the grounded type, the cord set or extension cord
should be a grounding-type 3-wire cord.

Owner's Manual
PROBLEM: POSSIBLE CAUSE(S): RESOLUTION(S):
White smoke is
coming out of
the product.
You are frying greasy
foods.The Fry Pan
Basket Net contains
greasy residue from
previous uses.
When preparing greasy
ingredients in the Air
Fryer, large amounts
of oil can smoke and
inltrate Fry Pan Basket.
The oil will produce
white smoke and the
Fry Pan might become
hotter than usual. This
will not affect the nal
cooking effect. White
smoke is caused by
grease heating up in the
Fry Pan Basket.
Make sure you clean Fry
Pan Basket properly
after use.
French fries are fried
unevenly in the Brio.
You did not soak the
potato sticks properly
before you fried them.
You did not use the
right potato type or
they were not fresh.
Soak potato sticks in a
bowl of water for at least 30
minutes, take them out, and
dry with paper towels.
Use fresh potatoes and make
sure they stay rm during
frying.
French fries are not
crispy when they
come out of the Brio.
The crispiness of the
fries depends on the
amount of oil and water
in the fries.
Dry the potato sticks
properly before adding the
oil and placing in the Brio.
Cut the potato sticks smaller
for a crispier result. Add
slightly more oil to potatoes
before placing in Brio for a
crispier result.
